The conference will focus on what needs to happen to amplify stakeholder voices to inspire change and maximize social value to improve equality around the world. Participants will explore ways to use social impact data to drive innovation and share their own experiences and successes in changing culture, systems, techniques and legislation in an engaging round-table format.

"More than ever, Social Value conversations are needed to illustrate the strengths and challenges of any given approach. We hope to see Canada well represented in this unique opportunity to advance value conversation, locally and internationally," says Stephanie Robertson, Chair of Social Value Canada.

The conference will be held in Istanbul, Turkey in partnership with the Koc University Social Impact Forum, for a global perspective blended with regional dynamics and cultures. Sessions will mainly be in English with some offered in Turkish.

Social Value International believes that social value has the potential to help change the way we understand the world around us, and make decisions about where to invest resources. By changing the way we account for value, SVI believes that we will end up with a world with more equality and a more sustainable environment.
